NYC

On Friday, we drove to Memaw & Pepaw's house in Princeton, NJ. Saturday morning, we woke up and took the train to New York city for a fun filled day! This is our second year taking the kids into the city during the holidays, and I hope it's a tradition we can continue for years to come. Our first stop was Macy's Santaland to see Santa Claus. Both Samuel & Abigail loved seeing the decorations. Abigail was not impressed with Santa! Actually, she did not like sitting on his lap one bit. Since October she has been saying "ho..ho..ho" over and over anytime she sees a picture, ornament, etc. of Santa! Samuel on the other hand has never been afraid of him. Once again, he walked right up, jumped in his lap and started talking. When we asked him what he told Santa he wanted for Christmas his response was "you will have to wait and see on Christmas morning." What a little stinker!

(Sorry Santa, you'll have to take my brothers word for it...I have been a good girl this year but I'm outta here!)

By the time we finished with Santa, we were all hungry. Well, poor Abigail was exhausted from seeing Santa, so she slept while we ate. Checkout Samuel's lunch...you are looking at New York's largest hotdog!
After lunch we walked 20+ blocks in the freezing cold to FAO Schwarz. The line wrapped around the outside of the store, but surprisingly it only took about 10 minute to get in. Samuel and Abigail were in heaven, along with the hundreds of other kids, it was a madhouse. After we left the toy store we headed to Rockefeller Center to see the Christmas Tree. We then took a taxi back to Penn Station and called it a day!

Sunday morning we woke up to our first glimpse of snow this season. Thanks Memaw & Pepaw for a great weekend!
